True Pathology: A Multilingual Quine

post from Good Math, Bad Math on 27 April 2007 08:40:47 PM. © Good Math, Bad Math

While browser over at programming.reddit.com, I came across something simultaneously hideous and amazing.

I've showed quines before as part of the pathological programming posts: a quine is a program which, when run, generates itself as an output. I've even written about a programming language where the only way to create a loop is through quining the program.

But I've never seen anything like this before. It's a multilingual quine: the program below is not just a quine, but it's simultaneously a quite in three different languages: OCaml, Haskell, and Scheme. I have no idea how the author managed to figure out how to do this; and I probably don't want to. :-)
